Fired from five barges positioned between W. 14th St. and W.
34th St. in Manhattan on the Hudson River, pyrotechnics will reach
1,000 feet and fall to the water’s edge creating spectacular and
unforgettable summer memories. Audiences across the nation can
experience the spectacle, along with prime live viewing in New York
and New Jersey along the shores of the Hudson River and through a
two-hour live event on NBC and streaming live on Peacock.
“Each year, we gather to celebrate summer moments with friends
and family – the Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks sits at the center of
those celebrations and captivates millions of spectators nationwide
with breathtaking sights, striking sounds and showstopping
performances by iconic artists and musicians, creating the nation’s
largest Independence Day celebration and lasting memories,” said
Will Coss, executive producer of Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks.
“This year’s Fireworks will feature never before seen effects
created for Macy’s, special surprise and delight moments and an
exciting musical score of summer’s greatest hits, inspiring our
audience nationwide.”
Inspired by Summer’s Greatest Hits, Macy’s new summer campaign,
this year’s custom 25-minute musical score will celebrate the
season with summertime favorites. Produced and arranged by Grammy
and Emmy Award winner Jason Howland, the score will feature
chart-topping musical talents, including Brandy Clark,
Mickey Guyton and Amber Mark. Each will reimagine an
iconic hit to create the ultimate summer soundtrack, featuring new
sounds across a variety of genres and decades and interweaving
patriotic anthems with contemporary hits. In addition to lending
her talents to the musical score, Mickey Guyton will join “Access
Hollywood’s” Zuri Hall to co-host this year’s festivities on
NBC.
Before the fireworks light up the sky, a star-studded line up
will take the stage live from New York City. Audiences can tune in
to see exhilarating performances by Tanner Adell, Luis
Fonsi, The War And Treaty and Lainey Wilson in
advance of Macy’s multi-sensory pyrotechnic salute to the
nation.
A beloved national tradition since 1976, the 2024 edition of the
Fireworks will feature a custom-made effect that will debut in the
Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks. Featuring a silver cascading burst,
this never-before-seen firework will create a center kaleidoscope
and alternating red and blue as it fills the sky. Additional
effects including cross rings, strobing comets, waterfalls, Saturn
circles, crackling pistils and special ghost pyro that alternates
colors featuring multiple hues, will dazzle viewers nationwide. The
Macy’s Fireworks will culminate in a signature, fan-favorite
moment, the Macy’s Golden Mile.
